This guide describes how to run through the Windows setup upon starting your zSpace AIO for the first time. Please note that these steps are specific to the latest zSpace AIO systems. The Windows setup steps for earlier systems may differ slightly. Before powering on your zSpace AIO for the first time, follow the steps in the zSpace AIO QuickStart Guide to set up the hardware. You must complete some configuration tasks before you can start using the system. These steps include:

Complete Windows Configuration to create a local Windows account and log on to theoperating system using the local account.

Optional Post Configuration tasks.

Important: Do not plug the RJ-45 wired network connection into to your zSpace 300 until the initial configuration is complete. If the network cable is connected, the steps listed here will differ in several ways, and this document does not cover those differences. Once you have completed these initial configuration steps, you may plug in your wired network connection or connect to a wireless network from the desktop of your zSpace AIO system.

Post Configuration Options

The following post configuration tasks are optional but recommended.

Optional - Set Power Management settings

Power Management settings are what controls when you zSpace goes to sleep. There are separate settings for the display to sleep and hard drive sleep. The default sleep settings for Windows 10 are 10 minutes for the display and 30 minutes for the hard drive.

Unlike a traditional display, the zSpace display wakes from sleep slightly differently. You may not see any on screen notification that the zSpace is coming out of sleep mode. Simply pressing a key on the keyboard or clicking a button on the mouse should wake the zSpace from sleep.

zSpace System Software, when installed, will not allow the zSpace hard drive to sleep when it is running regardless of the Windows settings. The display may still sleep. If any zSpace application, which has tracking, is running, this will prevent the display from going to sleep regardless of the Windows setting.

Optional - Set Chrome as Default Browser

From the Windows Start Menu, navigate to Settings > System > Default apps.

Select Web Browser and choose the Google Chrome option.

Close the windows opened to complete these steps. Chrome is now the default browser.
